In theory my mounting is less than ideal, but it works very well.

I have the 330S mounted on a *horizontal* mast that attaches to my
building's fire escape and extends out far enough to get the antenna
away from the building's "noise envelope". I used clamps to gently
attach the mast to the *top* of the antenna, rather than to the base.
I'm on the third floor, so the antenna is fairly high in the air.

I considered other scenarios, some of which would have allowed me to
use a rotor. However, the antenna didn't seem to be directional on the
frequencies I normally listen to, so I decided to go with the
arrangement just described. I'm very happy with it.

Hey Steve, how/where do you have your 330S mounted? I ordered the 1530 last
week and I haven't decided if I'll mount it at ground level or not. I am
going to put it on a rotor though, which should help with nulling at lower
frequencies.
